Retirement Plan

Using insights from your financial snapshot, we design a personalized plan leveraging vehicles like Indexed Universal Life (IUL) insurance or Roth conversion strategies that offer tax-free income, growth, and protection.

Your life and financial goals may evolve, so we schedule yearly reviews to ensure your plan stays aligned with your objectives, remains tax-efficient, and continues to grow toward your retirement vision.

Tax-Free Retirement Planning

At Paladin Financial Estate & Income Planning, we design tax-free retirement plans that let you grow wealth today and spend it tomorrow—without giving a large share to the IRS. By combining Indexed Universal Life (IUL) insurance with smart conversions and tax diversification, you can build predictable income, protect your legacy, and enjoy true financial freedom.

Protect Your Wealth and Gain Flexibility with IUL—Beyond What a 401(k) Can Offer

While a 401(k) tied to the S&P 500 offers market-based growth potential, it also exposes your retirement savings to full market volatility, taxes on withdrawals, early withdrawal penalties, and rigid distribution rules. In contrast, an Indexed Universal Life (IUL) insurance policy provides the opportunity for tax-deferred growth with a floor that protects against market losses and a cap that limits gains. More importantly, IULs allow for tax-free income through policy loans, have no required minimum distributions, and offer death benefit protection for your loved ones. With an IUL, you gain long-term financial security, tax efficiency, and the flexibility to access your money on your terms.

How the IRS Lets IUL Deliver Tax-Free Income

Leverage IRS-Approved Strategies §72(e) | §7702 | §7702

Because properly structured IUL policies satisfy all three sections, you can access your accumulated cash value with tax-free policy loans, creating a flexible income stream in retirement while maintaining a valuable death benefit for your heirs.
